    Ambiance is very nice, service good, but food could be better. When you ask for a glass of the House Cabernet you expect a price for the wine which is comparable with other restaurants of the same category and not with a price of $30.00 per glass when the check come. This alone will prevent me from recommend Via Veneto.

    I have not been to Via Veneto in years. I loved it before and when my boyfriend made reservations, I was excited to try it again. It did not disappoint. It’s beautiful and great ambiance. The food was perfection, as well as the wine selection.

    Always a pleasure to dine at Via Veneto. The food is outstanding! We had the veal chop as our main course and in my opinion it is one of the best in the world! And yes, I have tried them all over the world! That having been said, the best part of Via Veneto is the gracious way that they make you feel so special when you dine there. It’s as if they’ve waiting all day for you to arrive.
